"Dear
Betty" -- Letters from Helen Dawe and Betty Youngson, 1974, Page
3
Helen
and Betty mail one another clippings, old photos, artwork, seaweed and
snakeskins. Real estate prices continue to shock. CBC's show "The
Beachcombers"is watched to see who's an extra. Bergie Solberg's
move from Porpoise Bay to Snake Bay -- lock, stock, and TV -- is recounted.

Dear
Betty,
We
were sorry to hear Gordy must enter hospital and hope that after
he has had a thorough investigation the MD's will be able to devise
and effective treatment.

Dear
Helen,
This
is the followup letter to my last week's hurried note which you'll
no doubt have received. There were a couple of points in your
letters I hadn't answered properly and will do so now, to the
best of my knowledge. Please bear with me and I'll try not to
be too longwinded.

Dear
Betty,
What
can I say? I am overwhelmed by your generosity in making up the
snappy garters, your kindness in forwarding the fine old pictures,
and your willingness to answer my many questions.

Dear
Helen,
I
know you don't like to be thanked for things, but dammit I'm going
to thank you anyway for that magnificent specimen of a snakeskin
you so kindly sent, your always welcome letter, and then last
week the copy of the Sunshine Shopper -- all so very interesting
and so much appreciated.
